Coarse aggregate is one of the essential components of concrete and occupies the largest volume in the mix. That is why it greatly affects the concrete mix design. Its properties such as strength, maximum size, shape, and water absorption influence water demand, the quantity of cement and fine aggregate in concrete mixture.
2017-8-5 sieve is called “fine aggregate” or “sand,” and larger aggregate is called “coarse aggregate.” Coarse aggregate may be available in several different size groups, such as 19 to 4.75 mm (3/4 in. to No. 4), or 37.5 to 19 mm (1-1/2 to 3/4 in.). ASTM C 33 (“Standard Specifications for Concrete Aggre-
Furthermore, coarse heavy aggregate consisting of crushed ore, synthetic products or mixtures of both while fine heavy aggregate consists of high density minerals and manufactured or natural sand. Additionally, high density grout and mortar can be achieved when it is needed by using fine heavy aggregate.
2021-8-9 The importance of using the right type and quality of aggregates cannot be overemphasized. The fine and coarse aggregates generally occupy 60% to 75% of the concrete volume (70% to 85% by mass) and strongly influ- ence the concrete’s freshly mixed and hardened proper- ties, mixture proportions, and economy.
MagnaDense is a natural aggregate manufactured from the iron oxide Magnetite. Because of its high specific gravity constructors use MagnaDense as a coarse material to produce heavyweight concrete. As a result, you will get high density concrete with more weight, and your project will require less volume. High density concrete
2015-10-28 Abstract — Heavy weight concrete or density concrete is commonly used for radiation shielding either in nuclear power plants or in radiation therapy units. It can also be used as ballast in offshore locations such as pipelines. Heavy weight concrete is designed by using heavy weight aggregates such as hematite, magnetite, barite etc. Here 2 heavy weight aggregates are used- hematite and laterite stone. First concrete mixes were prepared by replacing conventional aggregates with hematite (0%, 25%, 50% and 100 %). Then another set of mixes were prepared by replacing conventional concrete with laterite stones in the same percentage. Physical and mechanical properties of all the mixes were determined and then compared with the standard mix. The concrete with density up to 3004 kg/m3 was obtained for hematite concrete and density up to 2663 kg/m3 was obtained for laterite concrete. Keywords — High density concrete,

2015-12-1 Coarse aggregates were used in a saturated surface dry condition to avoid the effect of water absorption during mixing to assess the real effect of coarse aggregate on concrete properties. All concrete mixes had constant water to cementitious ratio of 0.35 and a superplasticizer (SP) was used to maintain a constant slump of 10 ± 2 cm. Table 3.
2015-3-1 Coarse aggregates were used in a saturated surface dry condition to avoid the effect of water absorption of coarse aggregate during mixing and consequently to assess the real effect of coarse aggregate on the concrete properties.
2021-9-8 Coarse Aggregates gives volume to the Concrete. Coarse Aggregates in concrete provides body and strength to the concrete and acts as a filler material which will give the homogeneous mass of the concrete. Coarse aggregates are used in every Construction projects which includes the construction of roads, Buildings, Railway Tracks etc.
2021-8-21 Coarse aggregate is used in concrete to make heavy structures as for example, high-rise buildings, bridges, foundations, etc. The use of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate in concrete can enable it to withstand the external environment.

2015-10-28 is 7 N/mm2 for 25% replacement of coarse aggregate with hematite stone and that for laterite concrete is 6.16 N/mm2 for 25% replacement of coarse aggregate with laterite stone. V. CONCLUSIONS In this study, experimental studies on replacement of coarse aggregate with heavy weight aggregates on the properties of concrete was investigated.
2015-12-1 High-performance heavy density concrete made with magnetite coarse aggregate with 10% SF reaches the highest compressive strength exceeding over the M60 requirement by 14% after 28 days. Whereas, the compressive strength of concrete containing barite aggregate was very close to M60 and increases up to 90 days.
2020-3-23 coarse aggregate replacement in a concrete mixture designed for field implementation. III. SCOPE The waste materials from industries can be effectively used in the replacement of coarse aggregate. It minimizes the production cost of concrete. It reduces the percentage use of conventional aggregates in concrete.
1.Size of Coarse Aggregates: The size of the coarse aggregate depends on the use of the concrete is to be poured. For large-scale concreting operations without complex reinforcement, large aggregates of size 80 mm, 40 mm, 20 mm are used. For the simple construction of residential or other buildings, 20 mm is the maximum size will be used.

Concrete tested with varying percentages of rubber from 0 to 15% of normal aggregates. Compressive strength, of concrete is measured and comparative analysis is made. 1. Introduction
2021-9-8 To shape concrete, aggregate is mixed with cement that is used to lay the base of a road or even a roof in a building. Many ingredients, such as sand, gravel, stone, crushed rock and sometimes even waste slug from the iron and steel industry, are used to form aggregates. In general, aggregate is graded as fine and coarse.

Coarse aggregates are defined as any material greater than 4.75 mm. A coarse aggregate is also identified as any aggregate retained in a #4 sieve. Fine aggregates are any material less than 4.75 mm that can pass through a #4 sieve and is retained on a #200 sieve. Why do we use aggregates in concrete
2021-8-31 Using the E-waste as a partial replacement of coarse aggregate in concrete is the best solution. We can not fully replace material in concrete because it impacts the workability of concrete. The electronic waste is crushed as required particle size and can be mixed with other aggregates in concrete which will not affect the quality & durability

2015-6-5 strong need to utilize waste glasses. Many efforts have been made to use waste glass in concrete industry as a replacement of coarse aggregate, fine aggregate and cement. Its performance as a coarse aggregate replacement has been found to be non-satisfactory because of strength regression and expansion due to alkali-silica reaction.
